The Fantastic World of Fellini!

In-Person

Jul 27

This carnivalesque portrait of provincial Italy during the fascist period, the most personal film from Federico Fellini, satirizes the director’s youth and turns daily life into a circus of social rituals, adolescent desires, male fantasies, and political subterfuge, all set to Nina Rota’s classic, nostalgia-tinged score. The Academy Award–winning Amarcord remains one of cinema's enduring treasures. This screening and presentation provided in partnership with the Italian American Heritage Society.
